I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Gwen’s story is finally moving forward and I can’t wait to see where the Proctors find trouble next! I didn’t love the last book in the series, but this book brings back all of the elements that I loved about the earlier books. However, all aspects are neatly tied together, perhaps a little too neatly. I was scared there was going to be a cliff hanger because so much happens in the last 10% of the book, and I wasn’t sure there was going to be adequate time for all threads to be wrapped up. My only complaint is that the last few pages felt rushed. While it lacked believability, it was fun to read. The plot was tightly wound and when it fully unraveled it was pure chaos (in a good way). I was lured in by the case of the missing boy, and intrigued by “The All Saints” cult. I still like Gwen’s chapters best, but the other character’s voices are growing on me.īitter Falls is an action-packed, suspense-filled filled read chock full of tension and drama. I haven’t always loved this dynamic, but it works well in Bitter Falls. The narrative, similar to previous installments, is split between Gwen, Connor, Sam, and Lanny. When members of a crazy religious cult take two members of the Proctor family for ransom, it is up to the other two members to bring them home. It’s also not helping that Proctors have few friends left in Stillhouse Lake, and their neighbors are making it more than clear that they want them gone.
Gwen, now working as a kick-ass PI, unknowingly puts her family in danger (she's got quite the knack for attracting trouble) when she begins investigating a cold case about a man who vanished without a trace. The Proctor family find themselves in danger once again. This book reminded me of why I love this series!īitter Falls is a psychological thriller about a dangerous cult and the mysteries behind it’s “saintly” members.
